 * I stupidly tried to edit the .php file to increase the width of my header for
   optimized viewing on the ipad. I know I shouldn’t have, since I don’t know what
   I’m doing. I now have the following error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected‘,’
   in /home/czdesign/public_html/wp-content/themes/brunelleschi/functions.php on
   line 437
 * I no longer have access to my site, so I have no idea how to fix this. Can’t 
   even figure out how to get “live” help for someone to walk me through this. I
   am a beginner and don’t know what I’m doing. Thanks for any help.

 * Hopefully you have access via FTP – in which case you can deactivate the theme
   per these instructions:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Login_Trouble#Deactivate_Theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Login_Trouble#Deactivate_Theme)
 * Then download a new copy of your theme to your local computer and replace the
   functions file via FTP.

 * I can’t thank you enough for your quick response. Somehow between the cpanel 
   and FTP (and your theme deactivation instructions) I was able to figure this 
   out. Thank you!
